SENIOR CLASSROOM

The Senior room is working on Renaming numbers in mathematics. This involves writing a number in terms of its place-value parts (eg. 462 is 4 hundreds 6 tens and 2 ones, but it can be renamed as 46 tens and 2 ones, or 4 hundreds and 62 ones).

Renaming teaches students the importance of breaking whole numbers down to their place value in order to do a myriad of mathematical equations. Renaming can help children estimate the answer to multiplication and division problems and compute complex subtraction and addition problems.
